SPAM.

Easy for us to know, because admin does not have a facebook account

Other clues:

Uses the email address name as the real name. Most services know who you are and would use a properly capitalized name. Now if they had adjusted it to Hey Admin it may have fooled us. :wink:

No real personal info include in email.

The email was sent from Airtelbroadband in India. Not a likely source for an official facebook email.

Don't need an attachment to send a new password. Anytime there is an attachment gratuitously added, be suspicious.
